    Buy by Serial Number

    Don't just pick out a guitar, pick out YOUR guitar. When ordering a guitar by serial number from AMS you aren't simply choosing a guitar model, you're choosing the very guitar that will wind up in your hands. That unique flow to the grain, the sunburst finish that's just slightly darker than the one next to it; musicians like yourself understand that these things matter when searching for the guitar of your dreams and newest addition to the family. Shopping by serial number allows you the convenience of buying online combined with the essence of the in-store experience. At AMS, what you see is what you get.

    Gibson Custom Shop is the pinnacle of craftsmanship, quality, and sound excellence.  Each instrument celebrates Gibson's legacy through accuracy, authenticity and attention to detail. 


    1956 was the only full year in which the Les Pul model featured the powerful P-90 pickups and the adjustable ABR-1 bridge setup, a combination that allowed the Les Paul model to intonate, sustain, and thrill like never before.  This Gibson Custom Shop '56 Reissue captures the look, feel and searing sound of an original 1956 Les Paul Goldtop in exhaustive detail, featuring all solid woods, vintage-accurate gold paint, authentic replica parts, Historic narrow/tall frets, and hot hide glue construction.
